The Earl of CAF.NARVON, on behalf of the Vice-Presi dents, and for hir.self, returned Ids sincere thanks for the manner in which their healths had been received. Under the auspices of his' Royal Highness, their illustrious Chairman, ;they had pa:ssed an evening of uninterrupted pleasure, not :merely on 'account of the social hilarity which they had en joyed, bu', with reference to the more permanent interests • which they were here to foster.—( Cheers.) For himself he felt pec - aliarly hapay in meeting the present assembly, differs ing in politics, but all united in one common object, and by cominion feeling, as the subjects of a free State.—(Cliters.) leraat had preserved the blessings of that free State, and would, he trusted, perpetuate them to far distant times, but the public Press?—( Loud cheering.) It was with very great pleasure he observed that when his Noble Friend ( Lord Nu. gent) stated what he considered the public Press should seek and what it should avoid_,hen he expressed his hope that it ould be preserved a littl_e from private animosities and public faction—those sentiment s were received, not with a cold ac quieescence, but with sneers which marked a cordial and sin caws reciprocation at feeling..--( Great cheering.) He was ecerivinced that t' ec Press of this country was as far supe. Weir to the Press of other countries, as its institutions were Tre - eminente_(Cheering.) The Press had it in its power - to exeselse a most beneficial influence on the public mind. To a considerable extent it must always give a tone to public opinion, arid in some respects might be said to direct public feeling.—( Hear, hear.) A hope, had been expressed Vint evening that there should be Irio more Nelsons ; and he confessed that he quite agreed ;.', l that sentiment, because he was persuaded that, if no nurne Nelsons should arise, it would only be because there was 'so further necessity for calling them into action. —( Cheers., But there were other triumphs' which he trusted they "L i g' l '• :t long behold—the triumphs of the Press —the free, nohlen, victories of knowledge.—( Loud cheers.) It had been obs'ewsd by Mr. Watts, that it was not for that gentleman to 'say that the reports of the public Press were got asp with an' considerable shill, or required very remarkable talent; br.n when it was recollected that speeches, embodying matter 'of the greatest importance, and of the deepest publics interest, were published within an hour or two of their del.msey, it must be admitted that the modesty of that eentle rr, as, 'had led him to undervalue the talent and qualifications rertuired for the task ; and that such talent and qualifications roast be of the highest order, and command the warmest ad dration.—( Cheers.) It was with these feelings he (the Noble Earl) had found great pleasure in being present upon this occasion.—( Cheers. ) Song, Miss Birch, " The Angels whisper," universally ap pi auded. Toast—" The Trustees." Drunk with all the honours. Mr. TWINING, in acknowledging the toast, regretted that - the duty bar', not fallen into abler hands, and that through an ftccideratal circumstance two trustees were absent, who wortld ot'aerwise have been there; one of them was Sergeant Zalfotvd—(Checrs)—it was unnecessary to say with what zeal And talent that Learned Gentleman would have advo cat,:d the cause.—( Cheers.) He begged to congratulate the alsembly on the splendid commencement which they had - that evening w i tnesse d o f th i s valuable Institution. From such a beginning it was impossible not to anticipate future succ‘..3s.—( Cheers.) to comic song, entitled " Mr. Speaker," giving a repre srAttation of a rather noisy debate,, at a very late hour, in the louse of Commons, was here sung by several of the gentle men vocalists, with consi,ierable humour, and created no :little amusement. Mr. B. HALL, M. in proposing the healths of the foun der, directors, and the officers of the Institution, said it was with great plea' sure he attended the celebration of the first anniversary of so excellent an Association, formed for a pur pose so benviolent, and so honourable to its supporters. It was an additional gratification to him, that Mr. Anderson, who had the honour of being the founder of thi s hi g hly_ laudable I nst i tut i on, was a gentleman whose friendship he lied the h a ppi ness o f en j oying, and for whom he entertained the highest esteem. The gentlemen who were now joined with him as offic ers o f t h e A ssoc i at i on, it was impossible to doubt, 'were well worthy of the offices to which they were appointed, anet be felt great pleasur e in proposing their healths in con prnetion with his frier . ;l, Mr. Anderson's.—( Cheers.) Drunk with all the honour,. Mr. ANDEasrser said he need scarcely tell the assembly, what they wr.uld, he feared, but too quickly discover—that he was "'unaccustomed to public speaking" before such a "''''rnPmv . as he now beheld— an d h e mus t con f ess th at th e nanner in which the toast had been received had deprived aim 'I the power adequately to acknowledge it. his name 1 33 3. been mentioned as the founder of the institutior.- 0( Cheers.) It was true that he was its founder—(Cheers) — but its present prosperous state was owing mainly to the in dustry and zeal of others, who, with more time at their die rota?, were equally sincere in the cause.—( Loud cheers.) * had struck him, ten or eleven years ago, that an institution similar to the present should be estahlihed ; but who /her it was that he was then not sufficienty known to cis colleagues on the press, or that he had not suffi citsrit personal influence among them, the project had never till now been carried cut. But as Years progressed, the "mber of gentlemen engaged on the public press aug mented, and as they augmented he felt that there was in cr"sed chance of success. He accordingly applied to his colleagues for their support, and it was but a bare matter of justif.:e to them to state, that he received from them the most fer,ent aid—that a public meeting was held in consequence -that the plan, with some imprOvements, was adopted—and 'that he lied now the pleasure of :seeing around him, not only his fellow-labourers in the press equally interested as himself in the prosperity of the Institution but a prince, noblemen and gen -ski:nen, of whose presence any one might be proud.—( Ch eers . ) Aisobjects in endeavouring to lay the foundation of the insti tiVtiOn were threefold. First, to destroy the prejudices of the public against gentlemen connected with the press of Eng land, respecting whom he was aware that very unfavourable intr,ressions were generally entertained ; secondly, to bring these gentlemen together, in order that the asperity too fre 'quently generated by difference of political sentiment might be softened by personal and benevolent inter course ; and, lastly, that the decayed and the in- Arm, the widow and the orphan, might in their days of dark nest, see a ray of certain and independent light in their passage *h'ongh the vale of life. His impression with regard to these takSeete was strengthened by the facts, in his own recollection, and no doubt in that of others, that almost every trade and profession had its union or benefit society ; and, secondly, that a class of men who directed other benevolent instituTions, should be thd last to establish one for their own benefit. It was with these feelings that he had become an humble instru ment in the establishment of the Association, and had the high gratification in procuring for it, through Mr. Rams bottom, a gentleman whose benevolence was universally known, the powerful patronage of hi s R o y a l Hi g hness the Duke of S ussex . —( L ou d c h eers. ) He regretted that the constitution of the Association was not as perfect as it might ;ma t ), bat it was based on the principles of benevolence ; ;mei he trusted that when he should next have the honour to ni cting his friends, be shou ld have the proud sati s f ac ti ou o f exhibiting it in a state of perfection of which no oth er institu tion could boast. If, however imperfect, the Associ a ti on o f which he had the happiness to be founder should conduce to dry one tear from the widow's eye, or to promote the main tenence and education of the orphan and the distressed, he should not only entertain the consoling reflection that he . had ! not lived in vai n , b u t see reason to thank God that, humble as he was, he Lad in som e d e g ree contributed to the happiness and comfort of his fellow-creatures,—( Tremendous cheers.) Madame Albertaezi (who wee warmly greeted on presenting herself at the pianofertel here delighted the company by sing inr, a beautiful aria, with a clearness and richness et tone and a brilliancy of style that caller': down thundses of applause. T oas t— The Guests." Drunk with all the honours. Mr. T. WYsg, M. l'., in returning thanks said, that Asso ciations like this, for the benefit of literary men, were deserv leg of the support of every one interested in the liierature of Br,gland; and ho trusted that this Institution would be as per manent a* Itt merits were numerous.—( ('heers. ) Dolt—Mr. and Mrs. E.

Among the apologies sent were, first, Lord Lyndhurst. Ills Lordship had been so kind as to intimnte that he should he most happy to attend the dinner. On Saturday his Lordship sent a letter, stating that, in consequence of the sudden and severe indisposition of his dAughter, he was unfortunately un able to attend. Secondly, there was a letter sent to one of th , .. Directors, and deliverid during the progress of the dinner proceedings, from Lord Brougham. The following is a cop•: of such letter :-- " Bclgrave-street, Saturda'•. " Sir,—l have been favoured with your ticket for the din ner of the Newspaper Press, and I very sincerely regret that a prior engagemeet of lung stAnding prevents me frcm havinsr the satisfaction of being present.

I heartily wish it ail success. " I hare the honour to bu~ your obedient servant, 66 To ." "BROUGHAM." THE WORKING CLASSES. We borrow the following article, abridged from a publics ti33 called Cleave's Penny Gazette, because we think the in formation contained in it, relative to the present disposition of the working classes, ought to be known to the upper classes, who ought also to ponder deeply over Mr. Cleave's assertiors. His authority can in no other wise be disputed, for he mingles with the classes he describes, and is one of them, than that it may be supposed he places too high the point of intelligence which the masses have already obtained. At the same time there can be no doubt but that they are moving in the direc tion described by Mr. Cleave ; and possibly those illembzrs of the House of Commons who lately had an opportunity of hearing the evidence given by the Glasgow weavers to the Committee, tilting to inquire into Combinations and Trades' Unions, may suppose that his description is by no means ex aggerated. He says— There is a notion abroad that the present is a time of remarka!,le apathy, in relation to political matters, There is no indication of strong feeling or excitement in the minds of the masses, and hence su. perficial observers, and those in whom 'the wish is father to the thought,' conclude that all is indifTerence, if not absolute contentment, on the part of those who have upon former occasions, and at certain crisis in the world political, assumed a position and put forth a manifestation of purpose that have made the powers against whom they have been directed quail before them. Never, perhaps, was there a greater mistake than the one to which we now refer; for never before did the great bulk of the people—the working classes in this great community—form so just an estimate of both their natural and artificial position in society, and never were they before so intently occupied in devising measures to make the latter more nearly approach to the former, as they are now. The current, it is true, does not dash along with so much impetuosity and vio lence as it has done in times that are past, foaming in its madness, and threatening to break through the embankments and carry devastation and ruin into the country around it. But it has not, there. fore, become stagnant and putrid. It pours forth the same or a still larger volume of waters; but having made for itself a deeper and broader channel, it rolls itself along into the great ocean to which it tends, with less apparent force, but with a really greater momentum. Mankind in general are observant enough of any great or sudden movement that takes placo in society, but they are for the most part lansentahly demented as to the progress of mind, which is the natural consequence of social intercourse, and as to those indications of intellec tual growth, and correspondent enlargements of purpose which are silently and solemnly put forth in the moral bearing and pursuits of those who are the subjects of the process. If any one will take the trouble of looking into the matter—and it is well worth the ttouble—he w1:1 find that the apparent indifference of the class of persons of whom we are now speaking, to passing events in the political world, arises, not out of any insensibility to what is going on around them, but out of a very different feeling. The fact is, they have less of animal impulse and more of saber judgment than they formerly had. They do not think less than they did, but they think more deeply and silently. They do not suffer less than they did from the effects of partial legislation and maladministration, but they have changed their mode of seeking relief from the evils arising out of these sources. For.. merly they occupied themselves in seeking the mitigation of those evils in detail; now their attention is directed to the higher and more effec tual object, of correcting the circumstances from whence they spring. There is not the slightest abatern-nt of the discontent with which they have long brooded over their condition, nor the smallest diminution of their resolution to place themselves upon a footing of perfect equality with the more politically favoured of their follow-subjects. But instead of raising an outcry for the aid of others, to effect their enfranchisement, they are strenuously, and without unnecessary display, but with great unanimity of purpose, moving forward for the attainment of their object by themselves. The formation and operation of such a Society as " The Working Men's Association" in the metropolis, with its kindred and daily increas ing associations throughout the United Kingdom, afford much stronger proof of the political discontent of the masses, and of their deep resolve to achieve an equality of rights with the classes above them, than large public meetings or noisy declamation could possibly afford. The mechanics of legislation, as well as its theory, have occupied the attention of the Working Men's Association ; and it has given ample proof of its capabilities for undertaking even this—the most difficult branch of the science—in the production of a Bill to provide for the just representation of the people of Great Britain in the Common's House of Parliament, embracing ail the cardinal virtues of a sound radical creed, Tills outline of the Bill is comprised in "the People's Charter." J o this Bill provisions will be found to have been made for realizing th e great and important measures of" universal suffrage, no prope r t y qua lification, annual Parliaments, equal representation, payment of Mem hers, and vote by ballot ;" thus forming " a concentration of Radical princip:es in a practical form," upon which the Radicals of the kingdom may be brought " to unite, and to which they may point, as a Charter they are determined to obtain All honour! say we, to the Association—the abused of renegade Radicals, who prostitute for paltry pelf the powers of their intellect on behalf of Tory corruption—in whose enlightened labours have origi. need one of the most important State papers of modern times. We have seen the publication called the" People's Charter," and it is one of the most remarkable indications both of the literary talent which is now at the service of the working classes, and of the quiet and steadfast resolution by which they are working their way to success, which has yet fallen under our notice. It is a well.drawn Bill, or " outline of an Act to provide for the just representation of the people in Parliament," such as would do honour to the most experienced Bill drawer at the command of the Ministry, or in either house of Parlia ment, and is calculated to reflect much discredit on the clumsy bungling manner in which the statutes are usually drawn. We shall not say any thing of its contents, further than that it er&aadies into a judiciously worded law, the principles of Uni versal Suffrage, Equal Representation, Short Parliaments, end Vote by Ballot ; and that it has been or is to be distributed amongst all the Workine• Men's Associati ons o f t h e Empire— to be discussed, amended,' approved of, and ultimately to be, if ever possible, carried into etl'ect as the " People's Charter." It is, as Mr. Cleave says, one of the most important state napery of modern times. These facts we consider worthy of being known to all classes, and we leave them without any comment to the consideration of our readers. We must, indeed, notice that the publication from which we obtain the information is unstamped, and that the stamped newspapers are still exposed to a competition with a great body of periodical journals which have all the interesting fea tures of a newspaper except the cloven hoof of the Treasury. For this there is no remedy but the total abolition of the stamp duty ; and we should hope that the remedy may ere low* be applied. When the Chancellor of the Exchequer reduced the duty to a penny he alleged, and justly we be lieve, that he was willing to abolish the duty, but would be unable to carry such a measure through Parliament. He proposed the reduction as a compromise between the public desire for cheap news, and the bigotted opi.osition of the country gentlemen under the influence of the priesthood, to the progress of knowlee.ge. But now that the Canterbury tra gedy has made known the dense i,, , rr.,,ance and fanaticism which proved the inefficiency of clerical instruction, we should like to see, in either House of Parliament, the bold bad man, who would ever again stand up to maintain the fragment of a rr striction on the freest circulation of newspapers. The tragedy at Canterbury is one of the mischievous results of the stamps on the press ; and the stamps on the press were dictated by that desire which is common to squires and parsons—to lay Lords and spiritual Lords—to make the rest of mankind sub servient to their purposes, end keep them in a healthy state of burden-bearing ignorance. The Tories are not to have it all their own way in the election of Sheriff's fur the City cf London. Mr. Alderman Thomas Wood is mentioned as a candidate in oppusiticu to Mr. Ambrose Moos e.

It i 3 totally unnecessary to call the public attention to the following most important circular to the Lieutenants of the several counties in Ireland. It is a most able and judicious document, and will be welcomed by every well-minded and sensible wan in the court•y with delight COPY OF CIRCULAR ADDRESSED TO THE LIEUTENANTS OF COUNTIES. " Dublin Ca,tle, 4th May, 18384 " Mr LORD, OR SIR, " I am directed by his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant to inform yen, that it having become necessary, in conscquence tli,. late demise of the Crown, that new commissions of the peace should be issued ; the commis3ions which were in force at the death of his late Majesty were continued by Act of Parliament fur a limited period, in order to give time for a general revision of the magistracy of Ireland. " Llis Excellency has, with a view to such revision, conf,rred with the Lord Chancellor on the general principles by which it should be guided, and has camed a very careful examinaton to be made of the existing lists. The results of this examination have shown that they require much correction, and that the names of many individuals ap pearing to hold the office, may very properly be orniaed in the new commission. " In several countiea it became necessary, on particular emergencies, to confer the commission of the peace on officers holding military or naval command, and on stipendiary magistrates. These appointments were, in their nature, temporary; arid it does not appear to be necessary to renew them on the present occasi.m. " Some gentlemen have altogether ceased to reside in the counties for which they were appointed--others have parted with their property, or ceased to hold the position which had entitled them to the distinction — and some, though retaining residences and property, have ce,seel to per form the duties of a ma ,;istrate. sense cases, insolvency, or serious pecuniary embarrassments, or the want of soy a,:equa!e property, ope rare to disqualify individuals for tie useful and independent di. , cliarge of the magisterial functions; in others, the possession of inconsistent or inferior situations, such,sfor instance, as the clerkship of the crown, the secretaryship of the grand jury, offices in the revenue, customs or post cake, offices c .nnected n ith the county gaols or the collection of county cess, appears to his Excellency to be incompatible with the office and station cf a magistrate. . . " It appears to his Excellency that many of the duties of a magis. trate are not suitable to the sacred character, and that, in the present ta e cf the csiuntry, the discharge of thcm may lucid:re cLrgymrn embarrassing consequences; and, however prudently and impartially exercised,may tend to raise dissatisfaction and doubt as to the due ad ministration of justice. His Exe liency is, therefore, of opinion that eltiwinen, not in the situation of independent landed proprietors, should not be continued in the commission, merely on account of their being ministers in the church ; and that this rule should not be departed from unless incases of alyso'ute ncerssity, where, from local circumstance:, the attcnd.:nee of a sufficient number of magistrates cannot be other •. is ottsfned. " It appe irs that in many instances the commission of the peace has hmn conferred on members of the same family residing together ; with. out saying that, in no case, should this practice be contirm; (I, his Ex cellency thinks it is one open to weighty objections. It may be appre. bonded, however, that the adoption of a peremptory rule of exclusion of one or other of the persons so circumstanced on the present oc casion, might lead to much inconvenience, and psssibly deprive the public of the services of some very valuable and useful magistrates ; and his Excellency, therefore, thinks the safer course will be, to limit the correction of the 'existing lists, in this particular, to cases where, from the Petit Sessions returns or other sources of information, it may appear that one of the parties has ceased to attend to the performance of the ordinary duties of the office. " It has long been the custom in Ireland to appoint to the magistracy the agents of landed proprietors, though not themselves possessed of sufficient estate to warrant their appointment, nor in any other way con. fleeted with the counties in which they act. In some districts this has been alin3st a measure of necessity, and in many cases his Excellency believes it has tended to supply useful and efficient magistrates. In the peculiar circumstances in which many extensive portions of the country are placed by the continued or occasional nonresidence of great landed proprietors, it would, Isis Excellency fears, be difficult al!ogether to change the prevailing practice, and, therefore, he does not think it right entirely to omit such gentlemen from the magistracy; but there are cases where, from the absence of any such cause, the proprietor being himself rcident, and the neighbourhood possessing other * resident gen tlemen holding the commission of the peace, it does appear to his Ex cellency that it is unnecessary to cpainue in the commissio the agents of estates of no very great extent, and where those Lindividuals do not themselves possess any property in the county. " Several gentlemen appear to hold the commission of the peace for counties adjacent to those in which they reside, though they rarely act as magistrates in such counties. His Excellency is, however, fully aware of the necessity which occasionally exists for the services of a magistrate in districts comprised of portions of adjoining counties —and i❑ deter mining how far it is necessary to renew such commissions, he thinks it will be proper, generally, to do so, when the residence of the individual is so near the borders of the county as to render it probable his services may be occasionally useful, and more especially when, by being a magis trate of both counties, he may be enabled to exercise the powers given by statute to justices of the peace in such cases. - - " These are the general principles which, without implying any re. fcrence to the personal merit of individuals, or meaning in the slightest d , grce to question their g. nt.ral propriety of conduct, his Excellency conceives should be adopted in making the present revision; but his Excellency desires me to add, that in some few cases it has happened to him that circumstances in the conduct or character of particular ma gistrates, render it desiral;le ler the better administration of justice that they should not be re-appointed to an office of such trust and importance. " Acting on these principle, with the few exceptions occasioned by considerations such as I have just adverted to, his Excellency has caused lists to be prepared of those Noblemen and Gentlgmen now hold. ing:the office who, in his judgment, upon the information submitted to him, should be continued in the new commission—those lists have been transmitted to the Lord Chancellor, and I enclose a copy of that pre pared for the county of which you are the Lieutenant. " It is his Excellency's wish that you should, in conformity to the principles above detailed, Examine the list now transmitted, comparing it with the general list of the present magistracy of your county, amid that you should, with as little delay as possible, communicate to the LoriChancelor such observations as you may deem it to be of min_ portance that his Lordship should be in possession of in regard to any individuals retained in the list or omitted therefrom, as to whom you may think it should be further corrected. Ilis Excellency thinks it proper to add, that any communication made by you with respect to individuals will be considered as confidential. " His Excellency does not doubt that he will receive your cordial co-operation in his endeavours on the present occasion, in a work of so much importance to the administration of justice, the maintenance of peace and good order, and the insuring to the magistracy of Ireland; 04 public confidence and respect which are so indispensable to their utility.

Sra,—l have read with much satisfaction the observations you have made relative to the lamentable occurrence which took place last week in this neighbourhood; nothing but a most searching enquiry will satisfy the public, that more lives have been sacrificed than was necessary, if diligence and caution had been observed by the proper authorities. It cannot be pretended that the evil disposition of Courtcnay was not well known. Had not the Canterbury Magistrates, in the commencement of the year 1833, called in the assistance of the Rifle Brigade from Dover, such was the infatuation of the rabble that then followed him, there was every reason to fear that the prison in which Courtenay was confined, for a breach of the peace, would have been brokers open, and that great sacrifice of life and property would then have taken place. The Tories have brought this all on themselves; they proposed and seconded him at the election for Canterbury on the 10th of December, 1832, in opposi tion to the Hon. Richard Watson and Viscount Fordwich ; and Ise there found nearly 400 electors to give him a vote, amongst whom were many of large property and education ; he afterwards was proposed and seconded for the county, in opposition to Sir E. Knatchbull, Mr. Plumptre, and Sir W. Cosway, when the same person Mr. C---, a strong supporter of the T ory candidate, Sir E. Knatchbull, boasted tha t he took from his neighbourhood about sixty of the class, whose lives have now teen sacrificed at a cost of half-a-crown a man, to attend the nomi nation on Barham Downs, to support his favourite candidate, by 11 ° 1 'Q , tumffit, and outrage, and when asked the other day why he did not call out his half-a-crown men to quell the disturbance, complained that they were the principal rioters.—l am, Canterbury, June 8. A SUBSCRIBER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sta,—ln your Paper of last evening I read a letter addressed to you by a Mr. William Clayton, whom, I am sorry to see, is in one or two cases in a singular unhappy perdicament, as lam in above a dozen. Mr. Clayton's remarks mainly allude to the steam-vessel propellers lately pa tented by Captain Erricson and Mr. Braithwaite, the engineer of the New-road, Marylebone. This propeller acts on the principle of a screw with a thread, five, six, or more feet in breadth; two of which, one on each side of the rudder of a vessel, projecting through stuffing boxes, as low under water as possible, revolve by means of a bevel wheel, in con trary directions, but act together by reason of the threads being re. versed. Thus they act upon the water like a screw acta upon wood— and either push tne vessel onwards, or draw it backwards. Ihe angle of the broad rims or threads is about thirty or forty degrees. The shafts revolve about eight hundred or nine hundred times per minute., or snore. In rough weather, at sea, thcse propellers are aptto be out of water in the pitching of the vessel, but not so in river and canal navi gation. They answer very well. I have been induced to trouble you with this communication, because it so happens, that in the year 1527, I presented a model of these propellers to the Lord High Admiral of Eng land, the Duke of Clarence, and had several interviews with Admiral Sir Edward Owen, at the Admiralty, on that and several other important inventions of mine, calculated to give immense increase to our offensive and defensive means in naval warfare. I had no money to apply the things to actual nse, and his Royal Highness, as Admiral Owen's letters now before me will show, did not think proper to give me any encou ragement or employment I I have now lying iu abeyance several in ventions, which would confer incalculable benefits on mankind, but no means of securing the patents, so as to do justice to my children. Va nity might tempt me to insure the honour due to an important inven tion : but honour mends no clothes, buys no loaf, or secures a bed, or shelter—all as ti i , wli e c r h e (trifles to Stoics), lam in need of. N Le patronage of a Bolton, than is at present, Sir, your obedien t Servan t , June 5,1838. things a hi m ng a s n so like unto a Watt needing MACERONI. Arrived from Boulogne, the IVaterwitch steamer, Captain Hayward, with his Excellency Count Sebastiani and suite. His Excellency proceeded shortly after for London, under the usual salute from the Western Heights. - - Mrs. Ing, widow of the late Mr. John Stafford Ina the dramatic writer, takes a benefit at the Haymarket Theatre this evening. Mr. Ing, better known by the name of Stafford, w as the author of several successful pieces at the raitior theatres, and was respected by all who knew him for the substantial worth of his private character. litany of our leading performers have come forward to lend a helping hand, and the public, who bane often laughed at Stafford's jokes, and sympathised with the more serious delineations of his pen, are now appealed to on behalf of his mourning widow. It w ill be seen by the bills that the display of talent provided, or rather volunteered, for the oci•asion is cowiticrable. Power, full of the joyous humour and whimsical absurdity of his countrymen, figures in an Irish character; \ , Vebs'er, still fresh from Somerset, lends his comic vigour to the scene ; Buckstone, who, whether he writes or acts, is sure to hit his audience, and Rayner, who is competent either to raise the laugh or touch the finer strings that communicate with strong emotion, have parts adapted to their several capacities. We cannot mention all the popular fa. vourites who may be seen grouped together on Monday night, but let us nc t forget the names of Mrs. Fitzwilliam and Mrs. Glover, whose comedy is nature itself. Here is amusement for a single night, and, when the benevolence of the object is taken into account, a gratifying recollection for ever. REPRESENTATION OF GLASGOW.- The Conser— vatives have a!ready commenced an active canvass. A meeting of the party was held yesterday (Tuesday), and some arrangements were en tered into for the purpcsc of promoting the end they have in view in the event of Lord William Bentinck being raised to the peerage,— Glasgow Chronicle. UNITED STATES. By the arrival of the packet-s Lip Europe, Captain Marshall, we have received New York papers to the 17th tilt*, being four days later than those received by the Republic on Thursday last. Their contents are not very important. The latest dates out at New York were to the 20th of April, by the Havre packet, SyJoie de Grasse, the Pennsylvania, which sailed from here on the 24th of April, not arrived arrived cut The Amer i can merchants, determined not to be superseded by the English in steam navigation between the two countries, had despatched their vessel, the Sir Lionel Smith, for Lon.ion. She sailed on the 14th, two days before the Europe. Berrisn ARMY IN AMERICC—The British regular troop , quartered in Canada and at Halifax number 11,000 infantry and 500 artillery, exclusive of cavalry and engineers. The population of these provinces dces not exceed a million and a half, so that if nine.teuths of the people were disposed to rebel, there would not be the smallest chalice for them. ARRIVAL OF THE GUARDS AT QUEBEC.—The Edinburgh ship of the !hie, Inconstant and Apollo frigatee, and Athol sloop of war, with 800 Greeadicr and 800 Coldstream Guards, with 65 officers, arrived at Quebec en Wednesday last from Portsmouth, England The Guards arc bommanded by Sir James M`Donald, and were to land on Friday. Bicknell"s Philadelphia Reporter says of the Philadelphia money market that the banks discount good business paper with sufficient liberality, while unexceptionable notes find ready sale out of doors, at from Si to 9 per cent. The tone generally is wholesome, and confidence is gradually reviving. Our banks have not yet designated a day for the general resumption of specie payments, but we incline to the opinion that they will do so much sooner than was expected. We may add, that at a recent meeting of the Bank delegates of this city, Mr. Lewis, cashier of the G•rard Bank, offered a resolution pledging the hanks to resume in full as soon as the action of the Government wou'd authorise such a course. This resolution was not acted on, but will be on the first Wedncsday in June. In the meantime, we may remark that none of the Philadelphia Banks ;net even the Bank of the United States) will resume or py specie more generally than at present. The Philadelphia Banks are yet indebted to the New Yorks Banks, about SOO,OOO dollars. This, however, could lie readily settled by Mr. Biddle, an adjustment indis pensable to a resumption on the part of our Banks. The rate of Ex. chauge on New York is gradually declining ; 15,000 dollars sold on Saturday at 21 premium. We quote at 2to 21. Checks on this city were sold in New York last week at 21 to 21 discount. We notice an importaht improvement in western exchange, rarticularly on Nash- Tencssee; large certificates of deposit were said here on Satur day at 13 1-2 percent. discount. " Busineas is tolerable with our wholesale dealers, but particularly brisk on the canals and railroads. It is probab'e that the state revenue from this source will this year reach 1,000,000 dollars ; at least the com mencement is mast auspicious." SPECIE MOVEMENTS. The United States Bznk of Pennsylvania received last week from New York 2,100,000 dollars in specie, 1,600,000 of which was from the Bank of England, the balance being the amount of a special deposit. About 1,100,000 arrived ca Friday from the West, belrniging to this institution. The spicie in the Pennsylvania Unite] S!ates Bank must now amount to -Ist of April, it had Dollars 3,900,000 From New York, last week '2,100,000 From the ‘Vest Dollars 7,100,000 THE AMERICAN MARKETS. There have been few changes worthy of notice since my Tait. There ix en evident increase of business in the stock market; and United States Bark has been done at slightly improved and improving prices—say 1161 and 117 in New York. The Liverpool packet on Saturday last, and the Philadelphia from London, on Monday, are said to have bought out between them no less than than 4-15,000/. chiefly in gold! Specie, therefore, bears no pre inium worthy of quotation, except in the inland parts of the Union, where exchange is tar gely in favour of New York and the Atlantic cities. By the way, there is a slight improvement in domestic ex changes, th rates now being at New York—on Philadelphia, 21 dis ; Ealtimnre, ; Richmond 4 1 , , i to 5 ; Savannah and Augusta, 8 ; Charleston, 5 to 6 ; Mobile, 18 to 20 ; New Orleans, ii to 10 ; Louis ville, 7to 8 ; Michijan, 12 to 14 ; Boston to 1. Fito's BAIIIA.—The Button Post states that an arrival at that port confirms the intelligence of the surrender of the city Bahia; on the 17th March. About 2000 prisoners were taken—Sabini, the rebel chief, was found secret.d in the French Con,ults house, and was a prisoner on board a man-of-war, when the Rose ins left. He has many friends still, and it is doubted what will be his fate. Before the surrender of the city, about 600 of his soldiers escaped through the blockade in whale. boats, and landed in the country. It was feared they would be rein forced. The besieged, whsn they perceived all hope of defence was lost commenced burning the most valuable buildings-70 were destroyed— ,erne of them splendid edifices. The residents and soldiers suffered se verely from starvation during the siege. UPPER CANADA. We find the following; correspondence in the Detroit Courier : " Department of State, Washington, April '2 5 . " lion. John Narvell, of the Senate of the United States. " Sir—Your communication of yesterday, with its enclosure, relating to the case of Dr. Theller, recently sentenced to death at Toronto, Up per Canada, for high treason, has been received, and I have the honour to transmit to you, in reply, the copy of a letter addressed to a commit. to of citizens of Philadelphia, in answer to their request for the inter. vention of this department in behalf of the same person. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, "JOHN FORSYTH." "Department of State, Washington, April 23. "Gentlemen—Your letter of the 22d inst., requesting the interposi tion of this Department in behalf of Dr. Thellcr, now under sentence of death at Toronto, in Upper Canada, for alleged treason against the Bri. tish Government, has just been received. I have the honour to inform you, in reply, that a special agent was recently despatched to Canada, and is probably now there, who was instructed to inquire into the situation of all persons claiming to be American citizens, who had been impri soned by the local authorities on the charge of being implicated in the recent disturbances in the British provinces; and, it is presumed that, if the case of Dr. Thetler is one iu which the intervention of his good offices is Justifiable, they will, without doubt be exerted in his favour. " I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, " JOHN FORTYTH. " Messrs. John Oakford and others, Committee, &c., Philadelphia." KINGSTON.—The state trials will, we presume, come on in the course of the ensuing week. We notice in town several of the persons accused and arrested in Hastings early in December, and admitted to bail— among th,m, Messrs. Reuben White, Peter Davidsor., atu Samuel St vens. We understand Nelson Reynolds, who escaped after the blow-up of the conspiracy of the 20th February, has written to Dr. Sampson, one of the magistrates, whose activity and exertions shone conspicuously on that occasion, that he would come forth from his asylum in the land of sympathizers, and surrender, to relieve his bail; as yet, we have not heard of his arrival.—.A.'ingston Chronicle, May 5. „ - LOWER CANADA. PROROGATION OE THE SPECIAL COUNCIL—The Special Council which has been sitting since the 18th ult, was closed on Saturday by his Excel lency the Administrator. ARRIVAL OF FOUR. SIIIPS OF WAR, WIT(' TILE BRIGADE OF GUARMS, AT QUEBEC.--ENGLISH DATES TO THE 18TH APRIL. The following important information was sent up by express from Quebec, to his Excellency Sir John Colborne two hours after the closing of the mail for this city on Wednesday afternoon : " The Edinburgh ship-of-the-line, Inconstant and Apollo frigates, and the Athol sloop-of.war, have arrived at Quebec, with Sir James M`Donald and the Brigade of Guards. The Inconstant sailed on the Eth of April, the others about a week after. The Guards were to land yesterday, and will occupy the Jesuit barrack and citadel. The 34th and 66th Regi ments were to leave Quebec yesterday, and the 15th to follow for Sorel and Chambly. The Pique, from Halifax, was expected at Quebec on Wednesday night, as it was blowing fresh from the eastward." HOaRIBLE MURDER.—The Greensburg Argus says,—" On Thurs day, the 3d inst., Mr. James Bullard, of Mount pleasant township, in this county, w.ts committed to jail upon the charge of having murdered his own (natural) child, a boy about three years old. It appears that the night previous to the murder he and the child slept in the same bed. Early in the morning he arose, took the child out to the wood-place, knocked it down, and then split its head open with an axe. A few minutes afterwards the child was discovered in this situation, already dead. Bullard was immediately charged with the commission of the crime ; he confessed it, and stated that he had dune it in order that he might be hung—that he was tired of living, and had on several occasions attempted to corn mit suicide, but his courage always failed him, and he could not ac complish his object. He hoped he would now be hung, and get rid of this world. It is thought by many that he is insane." ANOTHER CASE OF STABBING.—The Montgomery (Ala.) Journal says —" We are sorry to say that another instance of the fatal use of the knife occurred in Tuskegee, Macon county, during the late session of the Court in that place. A man by the name of Falconer had some difficulty with a Mr. Hawker, a stage agent, and preparing himself with a knife, rushed upon his victim some hours after, and gave him a stab which caused his death." CONVICTIONS FOR MURDER IN N. C.—Two negro slaves were con victed before the Superior Court, sitting at Washington, N. C., for the murder of Benjamin Eborn, in whose employment they were, and sen tenced to be hung on the 25th instant. Two days after, in the same Court, a negro boy slave, Jesse, was found guilty of an attempt to corn_ :nit a rape on the body of a white female, and was sentenced to be hung on the 15th June. At the Superior Court of Pernoimons county, N C., ' sentence of death was pronounced on Thomas Roberts, fur the murder of his wife, and the 25th inst. was appointed as the day for his execution. MuenEtt OF AN OVERSCER.—A horrid murder was committed in Rockingham county, N. C., on Thursday the 19th ult. The particu lars are these:—White William Comer, overseer for Abner Webster, was sitting on a stump in a tobacco field, where a parcel of negroes were engaged in snaking tobacfp hills, and while he was calculating on paper the number of hills whi c i had bean made, one of the negroes came on him in the rear and gave him a blow on the head which brought him to the ground, when Sir. C. received many other blows inflicted by four negroes who conspired his death. The negroes have been all ar rested and lodged in jail.—Greensboro' (N.C.) Patriot. Mvanna.— A coloured man was stabbed with a knife last evening, about half-past nine o'clock, at 79, Norfolk-street, and expired immedi ately without uttering a word. Luke Harris, the assassin, is a short, thick set yellow man, and resides in the rear of the above number. This bloo , ly affair happened its the alley way, after a few angry words had passed betwean them. They are both represented as sober and in. dustrious labouring men. The deceased resided its Ludlow-street, and has left, a wife to mourn his unnatural death. HARD TIMES IN MI SSI 3 SIPPI.—Extract from a letter to a member of Congress from a friend in Mississippi:—" The times are truly alarming here. m a ny plantations entirely stripped on negroes or horses by the marshal or sheriff; and to add to our other difficulties, our Bank paper is getting worse and worse every day. We cannot get plantation supplies for less than double New Orleans prices, with our money. Suits ar e Inuit ying—two thousand fi ve h un d red in the United States' Cir. cuit Court, and three thousand eight. hundred in Hind's County Court. Silver is demanded, and our citizens threaten violence and bloodshed. We are in a bad situation. The Union Bank is just going into opera tion, and much is expected from it in paying off our Foreign debt, Whether it cats answer public expectation, time alone can prove; but I fear it cannot. The Board are ' , indent, and will not endanger the credit of the State " N e arly 7,000 suits are brought to the Courts sitting in Hind's County and for millions l —not of paper, but of gold and silver. These debts were made when paper currency, cheapened by an extraordinary expan. situ), was the criter ion of value. One clay last week, while Mrs.M'Clive, in the farm of Genoch, Straiton, was lear,ing upon the sill of her win:low, a flash of lightning struck one of the panes and shivered it to atoms, without doing tha smallest injury to Mrs. M'Clive. Yesterday afternoon the remains of the late Mr. Samuel Hunt, of Savoy-street, Strand, one of the Trustees of the Incor. porated S.,ciety of Licensed Victuallers, were interred in the burial_ ground of the Savoy Church, near his late residence, and were followed to the grave by fourteen gentlemen, among whom were Mr. Osborne, the Governor of the Incorporation ; air. Corby, the late Governor; Mr. Wills, one of the past Trustees; Mr. Lake, the Secretary; Mr. Scott, the printer of the Morning Advertise, ; and several relatives and other friends of the deceased.
